I find it a bit weird how he's only started 5 games for us this season despite Son's absolutely abject form in literally every game apart from one. I back Conte but I feel this is one area where he's been stubborn or got it wrong.

Why? He’s been injured for months….

Maybe, I’d say more down to conte not wanting to drop son

At the front end of the season, Conte was dropping Kulusevski and playing Richarlison on the right instead of Son who was clearly in really bad form even then.

I'd like to think that with Richarlison fit (fingers crossed) we'll start season him playing instead of Son.

Is he injured again? Obviously wasn't in Preston last night

There has been some talk on twitter that he has picked up a knock, but that was just a random guy on twitter.

But then him being at the u21's game last night adds a bit more weight to that story.

Would have been a great chance for him to play CF today....

Apparently Kulu was struggling with a knock for a while that’s why

He will prove to be as big of a bust as Ndombele and one of the biggest wastes of money of all time when all is said and done, underlining that our failure often lies more in recruitment than an unwillingness to spend money. I hope he proves me wrong but I have been saying this to all my mates since last summer. I have also heard from a connection that he is not all that well liked by staff around the training ground. Difficult to deal with and they call him "the thug".

Stellini noted after the game it was something small and they were being cautious. As you would expect given his bad run with injuries this season. I’m sure he will be back by Man City. Lucas too!
